Vikings' Asher Allen retires at age 24
COLUMBUS, Ohio, Oct. 20 (UPI) -- Chris Wells rushed for a career-high 221 yards and a touchdown Saturday as top-ranked Ohio State posted a 24-17 win over Michigan State.
Todd Boeckman completed 15 of 23 passes for 193 yards with two touchdowns for the Buckeyes (8-0, 4-0 Big Ten), who stretched their regular-season winning streak to 26 games.
Brian Hoyer was 12 of 23 passing for 126 yards with one interception and no touchdowns for the Spartans (5-3, 1-3), who trailed 24-0 early in the second half.
With just under four minutes remaining in the third quarter, Otis Wiley stepped in front of a Boeckman pass and ran it back 54 yards for Michigan State's first score. On Ohio State's ensuing possession, Spartans defensive lineman Jonal Saint-Dic sacked Boeckman, forcing the Buckeyes quarterback to fumble. Sir Darean Adams scooped up the ball and ran 25 yards to bring Michigan State within 24-14 late in the third quarter.
